We need to look to the long term.

We listen to what is being said by someone we care about.

Our personal growth happens in times of transition and change.

We need to avoid giving instructions or advice if it is not our place to do so.

We should realize that all good plays must come to an end.

We should enjoy the gift of life.

We need to let go and stay open to the unexpected.

We shouldn't ignore our compulsion to get in touch with a friend we have not seen for a long time.

We should try to think ahead about what a friend might need from us.

We need to reach out to a friend who is putting on a brave face while hurting inside.

Small obstacles and unanticipated problems could bog us down if we let them.

An opinion that we unconsciously cling to could be the thing holding us back.

We must realize that certain ideals will never come into being.

We need to realize that we can be happy in the present.

We should realize what matters most.

The more multi-tasking we do, the less happy we are.

Our focus and self-discipline improves with our age.

Happiness is what we get when we live a thriving life.

No matter how long we have traveled in the wrong direction, we can always turn around.

Sometimes we find ourselves in the middle of nowhere, and sometimes in the middle of nowhere, we find ourselves.
